From the organization's website:
Dor Chadash is a dynamic community, empowering a strong network of Israeli and American Jews to:
- Create meaningful connections with Israel through cutting edge programs and engaging events focused on Israeli culture, heritage and current events.
- Develop social bonds with members who are equally passionate about Israel.
- Become actively involved in the local, national and global Jewish community.
Since October 2003, Dor Chadash has successfully carried out more than 175 programs attended by more than 30,000 Israeli and American Jews in the New York area. We have discovered an incredible need among Jews in New York to connect with Israel in an authentic way. From providing educational events with prominent Israeli speakers, to showcasing the best of Israeli cultural offerings, to dancing to Israeli pop music on Jewish holidays, Dor Chadash has something for everyone who is passionate about Israel. Central to our mission is that we use the energy and passion of volunteers to carry out extremely innovative Israel-related programs that appeal to a diverse and sophisticated group of Israeli and American Jews.
Who attends Dor Chadash events?
Individuals who are passionate about Israel's history, culture and contemporary life. You don't have to speak Hebrew to join our group, though a large percentage of us do. We were born in the United States, Israel and other countries. The majority of us have lived in Israel at some point and travel often to visit family members who still live there. Most of us are between 25 and 40 years of age.
